When we talk about wine from Argentina, two things immediately come to mind: Mendoza and Malbec. The former is indisputably the country’s most well-known region, and the latter is the South American nation’s star grape. As Argentina’s wine industry has matured, the distinct terroirs of specific regions have become more prominent, and at the same time, other varieties are getting a share of Malbec’s spotlight.
Mendoza’s newest sub-region, San Pablo GI (Geographic Indication) is being hailed as the home turf of some of Argentina’s best wines made from a surprisingly wide range of varieties. Other notable wineries, including Bodega Norton are growing grapes in San Pablo.
